Seeing that the Iron Superintendent looked anxious and not looking too good, Chang Minyue covered her mouth and giggled. After a while, she whispered in a low voice, "Husband, in fact, it's okay for Dorgon to go to Daning."
Strangely, according to the news coming back from Liaodong, last year when Dorgon led the army to recruit the Five Women's Division, the Bin Mansion was burned down by a fire general. However, Dorgon later found out that the Five Women's Division actually destroyed half of the women's tribe.
All grains from Liaodong are stored in Shuibin Mansion."
After listening to Chang Minyue's teasing words, Tie Mo was in a daze, and then burst out laughing. No wonder Dorgon was so abnormal. His relationship was a big mistake, and he set fire to the wrong place. To say that Dorgon deliberately sent troops
When they went to Shaoshuibin Mansion, Tie Mo was somewhat unconvinced. Liaodong was no better than the Central Plains. To the Jurchens, food was far more valuable than gold, silver, and jewelry.
Although the food in Shuibin Mansion was saved by the Five Women's Department, it was also urgently needed by Dorgon. It's not that Dorgon didn't want to imitate Cao Cao in burning Wuchao, but it depends on the situation. Wuchao's food belonged to Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao did not.
It’s not necessary, so just burn it. But the food in Shuibin Mansion is very different. It belongs to all the Jurchens. Dorgon burned it all, and then he has to find a way to make up for the food. Otherwise, once
Without food, prestige will plummet.
It is understandable why Dorgon is not in a hurry to fight against Woller. Woller's base is in Zhenhai Mansion and Lushun Island. If the two armies really want to fight, Woller can just withdraw south to Lushun Island.
The Jin Kingdom does not lack horses, but warships. It will be no problem for the landlubbers of the Jin Kingdom to defeat Woller, but it is almost impossible to annihilate Woller and seize the food of the Yan Kingdom on Lushun Island. What's more,
The food stored in Woller was not enough for Dorgon, so it was best to focus on Daming.
Food, food, Tie Mo tapped his forehead, wondering in his heart, Dorgon gathered his troops in Daning, and there seemed to be no other way except heading south into the Ming Dynasty. Could he go north to fight the savages active in the bitter cold land?
Nan, but there is also the level of Du Lenghong. How does Dorgon plan to defeat Quanning City?
While chatting with Chang Minyue, I heard a commotion outside, and not long after, a blond-haired ocean horse walked in vigorously. She held a riding whip in her hand and walked out with a high air of pride.
This blond beauty is naturally the Ocean Horse Elizabeth. Tie Mo would not dare to leave this Ocean Horse in Lake Baikal. Elizabeth’s temperament is unchecked and there is no telling how much trouble it will cause.
"Superintendent, I heard that I'm going to dress up, hurry up, hurry up, I'm going to become a general." Elizabeth spoke half-baked Chinese, like fried beans, and jumped out quickly. Fortunately, Tie Mo knew Elizabeth well and knew what Elizabeth was talking about.
, waved his hands and said angrily, "Who said there was going to be a war? Look at your temper, you are so hot-tempered, a war will kill people?"
Elizabeth was very unconvinced and looked down upon others. Tie Mo didn't intend to explain more. Hehe, when this girl sees the battle array in the future, she will know that fighting is not a good thing. But Elizabeth has something to say:
You're right, maybe I really need to stretch my muscles.
At night, Tie Mo rested in Jade Guanyin's room. Recently, Jade Guanyin's mental outlook has improved significantly. This is also attributed to Hai Lanzhu. Hai Lanzhu always chats with Yu Guanyin in his free time, and sometimes stays with Yu Guanyin.
Guanyin visited Zhangbei and Zhangjiakou, and over time, the knot in Yu Guanyin's heart slowly untied. This time, it was not Tie Mo who took the initiative, but Yu Guanyin's initiative, because she wanted to have a child.
The clouds and rain had just begun to subside. Jade Guanyin was resting her head on the man's chest, with two red flowers hanging on her beautiful face. Although she was related by blood to Hailanzhu, the two of them had completely different personalities. Jade Guanyin was as gentle as water, as if she could melt.
Everything, "Husband, is there really going to be a war?"
"Who can say for sure? You, don't worry about these things. You can't escape what is coming." Tie Mo didn't want to start the war too early. After all, the most important thing in northern Shanxi today is to recuperate and recuperate.
The next day, in the Moon Palace, Chen Zilong and Wang Zuoguan were sitting on opposite sides. This time they recruited two close confidants, naturally for the sake of Daning. In the past two years, Chen Zilong has seldom been involved in military affairs, so he felt at ease.
While his eyes were resting, Wang Zuoguan had to use his brain. The current situation was not the time for him, the dog-headed military advisor, to take action. In fact, Wang Zuoguan had been holding back his bad breath during this period. The capital was completely defeated and was taught by Maitreya.
It was really embarrassing for them to play around. Although the supervisor did not blame him, Wang Zuogao himself could not forgive himself. As a dog-headed strategist, he did not see other people's tricks. This was considered a mistake.
"Superintendent, Du Lenghong and Dorgon are two vicious dogs. What we have to do is to force the two dogs to bite within a controllable range as much as possible. Of course, what to do depends on what to do.
What does the Superintendent think? Does the Superintendent want to cut off the mess quickly, or does he want to figure it out slowly?" Wang Zuogao had a mysterious smile on his lips. Tie Mo and Chen Zilong looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
,What exactly does Mr. Wang mean by this?
"Mr. Wang, please tell me in detail, what is the meaning of cutting through the mess with a sharp knife, and what is the meaning of slowly figuring it out?" Tie Mo had some thoughts in his heart, but they were all vague.
Wang Zuogao put aside his smile and became rarely serious. He sat up straight and said slowly, "Supervisor, don't you think that our Ming Dynasty is like a ball of thread nowadays, especially in the capital, where all parties are intertwined, but it is my governor's mansion that is like a ball of thread."
The power is the weakest. Originally, if we could build a good relationship with the old Zhu family, the resistance would be much smaller, and the power of our governor's office would be able to gain a firm foothold. But so many things have happened, there is no hope for this. So what's next? What to do?
If you want to take the lead in the capital, you must either devour these forces together or destroy them together. Which one should the Superintendent choose? If you want to take it slowly, my subordinates have some strategies to help the Superintendent take his time.
If you want to cut the knot quickly, destroy all these forces, and then take control of the capital, I have a good idea."
After recalling Wang Zuoguan's words, Tie Mo remained silent for a long time. Chen Zilong sat firm as a mountain and did not provide any advice. In fact, Chen Zilong and Wang Zuoguan had the same idea. It was the supervisor who made the decision on this matter as a subordinate.
Follow the path chosen by the governor. A minister is a minister, and never try to make choices for the king.
Wang Zuoguan said that there are upper and lower strategies, but for Tie Mo, there is actually no difference between upper and lower strategies. It is just one method that is sharp and bloody, and the other method that is gentle and slow. To annex these forces or to destroy them all? Of course, it is best
The only choice is to take all the forces for his own use, but it is too difficult to do this.
The forces of all parties could not be concentrated for their own use, and the rest could only be destroyed. Tie Mo understood why Wang Zuogao didn't make up his mind. This was really embarrassing, because every decision was accompanied by a bloody battle.
After a long time, Tie Mo narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "Mr. Wang, please tell me your best strategy, how to cut through the mess quickly?"
For some reason, Wang Zuoguan was relieved for no reason when he heard that Tie Mo wanted to take the best policy. Thinking about it, any hero would choose the best policy, because although the best policy is bloody and bloody, others will die. If he chooses the worst policy,
You can win the reputation of kindness, but you will suffer heavy losses to your own people.
After pondering for a moment, Wang Zuoguan said in other words, "Returning to the Governor, in fact, the best strategy is not complicated. All we need is that the Governor deploys troops to capture Taiyuan Mansion. As long as Taiyuan Mansion falls into the hands of our Northern Shanxi Army, whether it is His Majesty or Dole
Dorgon will definitely be in a hurry. This man will make radical mistakes when he is anxious. In order to prevent our Northern Shanxi Army from entering the hinterland of Hebei and lying north of the Yellow River, Dorgon will definitely attack Quaning violently, and Du Lenghong, in order to
To protect ourselves, there are only three ways left. Either hold Dorgon to death and die, or send troops westward and surrender to our Northern Shanxi Army, or go south and surrender to the imperial court. According to my subordinates, Du Lenghong
He doesn’t want to die. If he wanted to die, he wouldn’t have fled to Quaning. If he didn’t want to die, he would have no choice but to surrender. We won’t recruit him anyway. Du Lenghong’s only option is to surrender to His Majesty. We
Your Majesty is so happy about his success, but he has been thinking of finding something to overshadow the Governor. Du Lenghong surrendered, which is what he wanted. However, as far as my subordinates know, in the original agreement between Dorgon and Your Majesty, Du Lenghong surrendered.
There is a rule that the Ming Dynasty cannot recruit Lin Dan Khan’s old troops to surrender in any name. Hehe, for this reason, if Dorgon doesn’t know how to use it, then he should go back to the white mountains and black waters to become a savage.”
In fact, there are still many things Wang Zuoguan did not say, but anyone who is not a fool can guess the result. Dorgon will definitely take the opportunity to drink from the Yellow River, and the soldiers and horses of Hebei have long been frightened by the vicious reputation of the Jin Kingdom.
How dare you stop the Jin people from going south? Once the Jin people drink the Yellow River, they will threaten the capital. Hiss, Tie Mo frowned into the word "Sichuan". At this time, the shock in his heart could not be increased. There are too many differences in history.
There is also inevitability. Now this time and space has long been changed beyond recognition, but the Jurchens' second slam dunk is still inevitable.
Tie Mo never thought about stopping the second pass, because he needed the Jurchens' help, and the Ming Dynasty also needed a disaster to awaken the sleeping people. Tie Mo didn't want to be the person who turned the tide. Turning the tide, it's easy to say, but it can be done
What?
Yes, I never thought about stopping it, but I also never thought that I would personally promote the arrival of that moment.
Tie Mo closed his eyes, and after about half a stick of incense, he heard a long sigh, "Just follow the best plan, how to enter Taiyuan Mansion. Mr. Wang must have an idea, so I won't say more. In short, the plan must be careful.
In detail, I want to break the current situation, but I don’t want my Ming Dynasty to be labeled as weak and can be bullied."
"Don't worry, Inspector, we will do our best to avoid causing trouble to the Inspector!" Chen Zilong and Wang Zuoguan stood up together and bowed heavily. Wang Zuoguan knew very well that the purpose of luring the wolf into the house was to borrow money from the Jin people.
As long as the Jurchen Tatars complete this task, they should send these people back to their hometowns. If the Jurchen Tatars are really allowed to sweep the capital's wealth and population back north, then the governor will become the leader of the Ming Dynasty.
A sinner through the ages. It seems like a perfect plan, but it needs to be done with caution and there is no room for slacking off.
The time soon entered mid-March of the 10th year of Chongzhen. Everyone said that the beginning of spring was a good time, but the beginning of spring this year was not very good for Dorgon. After Du Lenghong reoccupied Quaning, he built the surrounding areas like an iron wall. Du Lenghong
Lenghong obviously accepted the lesson of the last failure. He concentrated all his limited troops near Quaning, voluntarily gave up northern Jizhou and other places, and then deployed heavy troops to defend Yushan and Daqing. In short, Du Lenghong is very smart now.
The road ahead is blocked. If we can't hold on, we can evacuate Quaning and retreat to Quaning at any time to rest.
With Dorgon's strength, there is absolutely no problem if he really wants to attack Quaning, but Dorgon doesn't want to spend too much strength in Quaning, because his target is not Du Lenghong, but the vast south of Du Lenghong.
The prosperous Ming Dynasty could attack Quanning by force, but the losses would definitely be huge. This was not the result Dorgon wanted to see.
So, in this case, the two sides reached a stalemate, and Du Lenghong was also happy to see the result. As long as Dorgon did not take the initiative to attack, he would not foolishly go out to fight with Dorgon. The two sides had a long confrontation and entered the fourth quarter.
At the beginning of the month, something happened that made Dorgon furious.
On the third day of April, Princess Aqige of the Northern Shanxi Army led 20,000 troops into Shizhou, west of Taiyuan Prefecture, on the pretext of annihilating the Mengshan Bandits. At the same time, Huyan Baoshan stationed in Yingzhou was also ordered to go south.
It only took one day to enter the hinterland of Daizhou. The dignified third lady of the Governor's Mansion, Princess Aqige of the Naiman tribe, actually led the troops to exterminate the bandits, and even sent out more than 20,000 troops. Are you kidding? Where are you going?
The purpose of suppressing bandits is to destroy the soldiers and horses of Taiyuan Prefecture.
Most people have guessed correctly that Aqige was headed for Taiyuan Prefecture. As soon as he arrived at Mengshan, Aqige's first general, Orger, sent troops to besiege Mengshan and established a military camp on the west side of Mengshan.
Zhang Shichang, who was the prefect of Taiyuan Prefecture at the time, was already sweating profusely. How could there be bandits in Mengshan Mountain? Mengshan Mountain is close to Taiyuan Prefecture. Even if Taiyuan Prefecture was incompetent, he would not allow bandits to appear under his nose. Ah.
Princess Qi Ge personally took action, which must have been the intention of the Iron Governor. Zhang Shichang was frightened and uneasy. Later, it was the chief secretary Fang Yao who came up with an idea, "My lord, the Northern Shanxi Army came here with a clear intention. They are hiding everything in this way."
Not doing it is not an option, otherwise, Your Majesty will not be able to explain it to you. For the current plan, it is better for the prefect to go to Mengshan Mountain in person."
Zhang Shichang had no other choice but to follow Fang Yao's suggestion. Zhang Shichang had doubts along the way, but as soon as he arrived at the foot of Meng Mountain, a group of masked strongmen came out. Poor Zhang Shichang had not recovered yet.
He was tied up on the mountain. At this time, Zhang Shichang had a series of questions in his mind. What the hell? When did there really be bandits in Mengshan?
These Mengshan bandits are naturally fakes. Zheng Yuan has been a bandit in Daliang Mountain for many years. Now that he is doing his old job, he is familiar with the industry.
